Pet care experience

I walk the walk and bark the bark.

My name is Marc, and I am a dedicated pet care professional with over a decade of experience providing high-quality walking, drop-in, and sitting services. Animals have been a central part of my life for as long as I can remember, and I treat every single pet in my care with the same attentiveness, respect, and love that I give my own. ​Currently, I share a spacious, pet-friendly home with my two cats, meaning your dogs will have a comfortable, welcoming environment with plenty of room to relax. I am incredibly fortunate to live near a variety of fantastic local walking trails, offering the perfect opportunity for your pups to explore, get a great workout, and burn off some high-energy steam. ​Having worked extensively across different pet care platforms, I understand that peace of mind is everything when you are away from your furry family members. I specialize in managing everything from energetic puppies who need patient leash training to larger, active breeds. When you book with me, you can always expect timely communication, detailed updates, and high-quality photo check-ins. ​I look forward to getting to know you and your pets, learning their unique routines, and making sure they have a safe, fun, and top-tier experience every single time!

Drop-In Visits • Dec 02, 2022

Marc is such an excellent pet sitter. I felt very comfortable and safe leaving my two fur-kiddos in Marc's care. Both my cats are very shy around strangers, but Marc was able to make a connection with them very quickly. I feel very lucky to have found Marc!

Marc was incredible! I had just gotten my dog and Marc was super helpful and understanding that we were still in a learning phase. I felt more than comfortable leaving my dog with Marc and would absolutely recommend.

Schedule

My schedule is highly flexible and open! I am currently available for walks, drop-in visits, boarding, and house sitting every day of the week. Whether your pet needs a structured mid-day routine or specialized weekend care, I can easily accommodate their specific timing. Please note that the only block in my weekly schedule is Wednesday evenings after 4:00 PM; outside of that window, I am completely open and ready to dedicate plenty of quality time, play, and attention to your pups!

Safety, trust & environment

Safety and comfort are my top priorities. I welcome guest pets into a spacious, calm, and pet-friendly home environment. I live with two resident cats who are very accustomed to sharing space, but my home is arranged so that everyone can have their own comfortable boundaries. For outdoor time and exercise, we take full advantage of the fantastic local walking trails right nearby, ensuring your dog gets plenty of fresh air, structured exercise, and safe stimulation. I am fully prepared to follow any specific home rules your dog is used to, and I can easily crate your dog for sleeping or down-time if requested.

Pets

A typical day

I like to keep things structured but relaxed, treating guest pups exactly like a member of the family. A normal day starts with a morning routine of potty breaks, fresh breakfast, and some easygoing wake-up cuddles. Once food settles, we’ll head out to one of our local walking trails so they can stretch their legs, sniff around, and burn off some good energy. The rest of the day is a nice balance of playtime, mental stimulation, and plenty of downtime to snooze while I’m around the house. I keep water bowls fresh, stay on top of their exact feeding times, and make sure they get all the belly rubs they deserve. You can expect a few great photo updates from me throughout the day, too, so you can see exactly how relaxed and happy they are!

To make sure your pup has the absolute best stay, please let me know about any unique quirks, health needs, or specific behaviors ahead of time (like treat restrictions, medication schedules, or separation anxiety). Since I have two resident cats who call this home, it is incredibly important that any visiting dogs are 100% cat-friendly and have a history of doing well around felines. I am very comfortable with larger, active breeds and love working with high-energy dogs, provided they can safely share a spacious environment with my cats. Let me know what makes your furry friend tick, and we can set up a quick Meet & Greet to ensure it's a perfect match!
